THE PRIMEvAL CoTERIE OF THE UNION


suppose you know that New Years
this time has been unlike any that has
preceded it. Society is so worn out with
the conventional thing that every set has
tried to make a new departure. All the
Fifth avenue folk adopted the English
caper. We called at Slopover's and the
Sappington-G ooseneck's and the Bat
tersly-Cakelvs, and the women at each
place came down in morning wrappers,
yawning and rubbing their ewes, and pre-
tending to have forgotten all about New
Years. They all averred they had been
so overcome with the old English Christ
mas festivities, the yule log, carols,
boar's head, miracle play and mistletOe.
You know that they had quite forgotten
the American custom OF receiving on
New Years. Greatly" said Slopover,
sits quite. absurd, ISN'T it,. to forget it,
but did,
Chick said these girls kept this up ell
day.
we met the primeval coterie OF the
AUnion Club coming down the avenue on
"a big stone track drawn by a yoke OF
oxen. 1t gave me quite thrill to see
their independence OF the conventions a
thing, it was such manly cut away from
the frippery of custom. | asked Goose
neck afterward il the strain of sitting on
that truck had not tested his endurance,
and he said no, man who had been
going TO the Metropolitan Opera House
all winter laughed at that kind OF nom
sense.
lido think, however, the Lambs' Club
fellows carried the unconventional
thing too far when they hired n coal
cart and got the driver to dump them all
out on Slopoyer's sidewalk like ton OF
anthracite.
But where there Is such a strong pro-
test against the conventional thing there
is apt to be a little extravaganza at
first.
The girls OF Heber Newton's church all
insisted on our signing paper protest
ing against the punishment OF women
for crime. They believed that it was un-
manly.
AT Goody Gainsb0rough's we struck the
snti-wear-blrd observation-disclosures gang and
had TO sign their paper too. Chick told me
aterward that be never wore bird on his
hit in his life. But mes great cock
fihter all the same.
1t the Apollinaruses we encountered
the prohibition squeeze and had TO have
Apui breaths examined by big footman
,<befre we could get in, ana Chick, who
Yhadtaken some a ia mode beef at the club
Twill allspice in IL, came very near being
shutout.
You've no IDEA what a nuisance it was

Why am I so MiserableY

DO weak and languidP Why such
heartburns and pains in the stomach,
such acidity, and such an unpleasant
taste in the mouth9 Why at times such
q gnawing appetite, and then again such
disrelish for foodY Why is the mind so
frequently irritable, responding, mclan.
choly, and detected? Why does one
often feel under the apprehension of
some imaginary danger, and start at any
unexpected noise, becoming agitated as
though some great calamity was impend.
ingY What is the meaning of these
dull, sick headaches; these violent pal.
pitations of the heart, this feverish rest
lessness, these night sweats; this dis
turbed and dreamy sleep, which brings
no refreshing rest, but only meanings
and mutterings, and the horrors OF the
nightmare?
The answer IS: These are the SWIM.
toms OF Indigestion or DyspepsiaElhe
beginning and the forerunner of almost
every other human disease. Indigestion
is weakness or want of power of the
digestive fluids of the stomach 10 con-
vert the food into healthy matter forthe
proper nourishment of the body. IL Ia
caused most frequently by the irregu.
larity of diet, or improper food, want of
healthy exercise and pure outdoor air.
II may be induced by mental distress
the shock Of some great calamity. 1t
may be, and often is, aggravated and in.
tensiiled, II not originally brought on,
by exhaustion from intense mental an
plication, Of physical overwork, domes-
tic troubles, anxiety in business, or finan.
cial ADVERTISEMENTS, If the stomach
could always be kept in order, death
would no longer be a subject of fearful
anxiety TO the young and middle-aged,
but what would be contemplated by all
as visit of an expected friend at the
close OF a peaceful and happy old age.
However, the first hostile invader upon
the domain of health and happiness is
Indigestion.
Is there any relief, any remedy, any
cure? That is the question of the sui.
fering and unhappy dyspeptic. What is
wanted is medicine that will thorough.
ly renovate the stomach, bowels, liver,
and kidneys, and afford speedy ana eff.
fectual assistance to the digestive organs,
and restore to the nervous and muscular
systems their original energy.
Such medicine is happily at hand.
Never in the history of medical discov
cries, evidenced by dozen years. thor
ough test, has there been found remedy
for Indigestion so speedy, SO sure, and
so surprising in its results as Siege's
Curative Syrup, but to-day it is standard
remedy for that almost universal afllic.
tion i'll every civilized country in Europe,
Asia, Africa and America. Public les
timonials and private letters from mill.
tary officers, bankers. merchants, ship
captains, mechanics, farmers, and their
wives and daughters, alike confirm its
curative powers.
